People own responsibility to cope, and for their services has increased constantly in the past year to enlarge. At the same time the welfare state has started to decay and needs a major overhaul.
the welfare state services weakened over the years is woken up in the Turku Varissuo suburb resident Jaana Mäkinen .
Hilly is the Mannerheim league for Child welfare varissuo of the local association. He has called MLL’s family diner people you know to share what they think about access and social services.
the Hilly himself recalls the time when her children were small to the current köyhemmässä in Finland.
– Things were better. An ordinary family has had the opportunity to get for example a home care or home services to help, when there was an emergency. Help received then also the current faster. Assistance lack of consultation here family coffee shop in many of the mouth.

Also Anna-Maria beautiful islands is thinking of service adequacy. He is concerned about society’s ability to take care of the elderly from each other. Your already old age could have gotten the mother’s medical and care services thinking about the.
a Former poor condition of the more elderly try to keep at home, although some of them already and would like to a care home. I also have the feeling that there is no longer any so-called ordinary nursing homes. Alternatives is now the poor condition of the bed patient care home or hang in your own home.
the beautiful island also said that they are not young people with mental health problems receive timely help, although the need is great.
Services is somewhat limited. They are mainly drug treatment. Many young people need much more.
the Responsibilities saddled with more and more people on your own shoulders?
the university of Turku and the Health and welfare of the institution left the study of pui science the welfare state and social protection the burglary.
the researchers seek to find practical ways to the poverty and inequality of the bridle to both models in accordance with the government programme of social security reform (the switch to another service).
the Research revolves around the academy of the rich eight million funding until 2022.
the Research director, sociology professor Jani Erola according to the welfare state has been a nordic success story. Despite this, we have a problem.
in These welfare states pain score is written (you move to another service) also recently from a long line of economic influence Sixten Korkman : young people with mental health problems, child care, elderly care gaps and health inequalities.
– the welfare state has weathered and changed since the 1980s. Individual responsibility in the welfare state survive in is now much bigger than it was earlier in the ethos of the. In finland there are signs of confrontation, probing Erola.

there’s a big fear, that the difference is growing so large that it begins to erode welfare state support base. The nordic welfare model in an ideal all citizens will benefit. If this does not happen and the differences are growing, is it a bad message. The welfare state base decay, if the belief falters.
taxes for the welfare state to preserve?
Varissuo family café in the three-year-old girl’s mother Stella Hilly speaks especially of children medical services, which he uses insurance policy. He advocates a public health-care services, although the family has a bad experience.
I think we need to improve municipal services, in order to a doctor to get faster and get better service. I would be willing to even tax increases, if it would improve the service.
the tax administration queries (switch to another service)will tell you the same message. The majority of people, or 96 per cent in 2017 tax collection is important, because that is precisely how can be to maintain our welfare state.
in the Political decision-making has on the other hand, respected throughout the 2000s, the second line: is targeted tax reductions. (you move to another service)
Timely help – as a reward for billion savings
the university of Turku and THL:n research delves into, among other things, that our welfare state is not currently able to assist well enough in their families, which is piling up problems.

INVEST- (switch to another service)project is to tackle the welfare state the missing pieces (you move to another service), i.e. children and young people with mental health problems, bullying at school and how school activities can cut off the bad piece of thread. In addition, the research wants to influence political decision-making.
the Professor Jani Erola rush to the prevention of problems. For example, if the young people of the early school leaving can be prevented in time, the whole society would save huge amounts of money. School drop-out rate is particularly high, for example among prison inmates.
– Only one school pudokkaan is calculated using the life during the more than 370 000 euros worth of more services than others. That cost reduction in the quarter would mean already billion savings to a single so-called birth year cohort level. And this amount does not even include, for example, during the lifetime of lost work income.
Inheritance bad-piece of the
Unemployment, poverty, or social security account, coupled with the parents ‘ low education level is a bomb, which in the current welfare state is difficult to access.
There are many problem families, which, with the poverty, unemployment and, say, health problems at the same time. These same problems are transferred to the next several generations, said professor Jani Erola.
She knows that many of the problem is difficult, expensive and time-consuming.
in Society it is always easier to help temporarily unemployed: society gives a transfer of money.
the Professor Jani Erola remind you that the welfare state is ultimately a question of democracy: who and how the common good is shared.
– Inequalities intervention is always a political choice. Citizens have the right to pursue such well-being, what society can offer.

this government program (switch to another service)according to social security must be reformed: “to Support needy people not always face the right time and he may not get the necessary service or benefit to the circuit. At worst, she is left completely without support.”
Varissuo family cafe young mother Tiina Mehtosella is one of the clear messages to policy makers.
– politicians should debate on welfare services and the welfare state at other times than election. And do something in front of them!
